Adansi Rural Bank awards scholarships to students

The Adansi Rural Bank Limited at Fomena in the Adansi North District in Ashanti Region has offered scholarships to seven needy but brilliant students to continue their education.

The acting General Manager, Mr Akwasi Osei Nkrumah, explained that the gesture was a renewed commitment by the bank to pay extra attention to its corporate social responsibility, particularly in the area of education.

He said the parents and guardians of the beneficiaries were shareholders of the bank and hailed from the Adansi area.

The Chairman of the Board of Directors, Mr Ahmed Kwame Boakye, said the financial assistance would encourage beneficiaries of the scheme to study extra hard to be able to develop their full potential so that they could contribute their quota to national and community development.

A beneficiary of the package, who is currently studying for his Masters’ programme at the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology, Mr Emmanuel Kofi Asamoah, used the opportunity to advise the seven students who had been enrolled onto the scheme to study hard.

The Queenmother of the Adansi Traditional Area, Nana Amoanimaa Dede, expressed gratitude to the bank for the initiative.
